A slightly inflated price relative to the equipment included in this car.

Comfortable, but feels a bit firmer (over small bumps) than the Q5. You can tell the car has some heft!! The electric power — 388 PS / 285 kW BEV — is incredible. The battery drops pretty quickly if you push the beast a little. The advertised 600 km range is generous on paper; expect more like 500, or even 450 in winter. The onboard technology is surprising and pushed to the extreme. After trying it, it's hard to go back to a non-electric model.

BMW 2 Series Active Tourer

The BMW 2 Series Active Tourer turns the family MPV into something you’d actually want to park outside a café, pairing compact practicality with surprisingly premium cabin flair. It won’t thrill like a sports car, but it drives with the composed poise you expect from the badge and keeps daily life easy and un-fussy.

Mild hybrid in terms of mileage. It’s an excellent car. Smooth, quiet, pleasant to drive. Petrol consumption 2.9 L/100 km. Powerful — lets you overtake quickly without taking risks. One notable drawback: the navigation isn’t as accurate as Waze and takes a long time to search for addresses.
